Dockside in Djerba

Dock areas are always interesting, no matter where you are in the world.

...but the fishing nets are way more interesting here than in most parts of the world!
...and goods are sometimes still transported in pointed-bottom clay pots.

A 15th-century Turkish fort on Djerba:

The Lalla Hadria Museum, housing what was formerly a really choice private collection of textiles, pottery, metalwork, costumes, woodwork, and calligraphy from the Arab/Persian world.
